The new title from House House, the studio behind Untitled Goose Game, looks extremely charming. “Hang out and get lost with close friends in a big world,” according to the game’s Steam description. “A cooperative online walker-talker from the creators of Untitled Goose Game.”
It’s coming out in 2025 on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
It was announced in June, but Atlus shared a new trailer at The Game Awards. There seems to be a lot of Persona DNA in the game, but with even more over-the-top anime bombast.
It’s coming to Xbox Series X and PC in fall 2024.
The free update adding the new content launches on December 15th. Dave the Diver is currently on Nintendo Switch and Steam, and it rocks, you should absolutely play it.
The composer of the intense music game Thumper is now making Thrasher, which like a similarly jaw-dropping musical experience. The game’s Steam listing describes it as “a mind-melting cosmic racer and an essential audiovisual experience,” and I can’t wait to try it out when it launches in 2024.
It’s coming to Quest and SteamVR first, but it will come to flatscreen platforms “sometime after,” according to a press email.
The Rise of the Golden Idol is launching in 2024 on PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and as part of Netflix’s mobile offerings. Rise will have 15 cases, according to the game’s Steam listing.
The new Golden Idol keeps up the series’ phenomenal art, though instead of a pixel-focused style, this new game looks like a painting come to life. Already one of my most anticipated games of 2024.
Daniel Mullins’ next game is called Pony Island 2: Panda Circus and it looks extremely weird... and awesome. Just watch the trailer.
I haven’t played Pony Island, but I loved Inscryption, an fantastic card game / horror experience that was one of the best titles of 2021, so I’m definitely looking forward to Panda Circus. It’s set to release in 2025.
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake will be out on February 28th, 2024, and it’s coming to PS5, Xbox Series X / S, and PC (via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG.com). The original was fantastic, so I’m glad this game is getting a remake for modern systems.
Fortunately, the show is streaming on other platforms, so it’s not the end of the world. Hopefully the website gets fixed before the event starts at 7:30PM ET.
The industry legends will be on a livestream to talk about the 30th anniversary of Doom, and I’m guessing it will be a fascinating conversation.
The livestream, which will be on Romero’s Twitch channel, kicks off on December 10th at 3PM ET. If you want to learn some of the history between the two, check out Romero’s autobiography — which we have an excerpt of that you can read right now.
